Location was central and ideal for exploring Copenhagen. We requested cot and this had been prepared in the room ready. We all slept so well, baby included. The room was basic but had everything we needed. There is a bar and games you can access during the day. Also the option to buy anything you may have forgotten. We also used their lockers to store our bags after checkout so we could explore for the day. They were about 60DKK for the day and a large one holds a fair amount of luggage. Only downside is there’s only 1 lift which can be a bit of a waiting game. Had we not had the pushchair we wouldn’t have needed it, but something to be aware of if you do require a lift. There’s also a tourist section near to reception with brochures and also discounts for certain shops / attractions - very handy!! The staff were all approachable and friendly. Overall we had a brilliant stay and would definitely return!

Appreciate this was a budget stay but I still expect the room to be clean, which it really wasn’t. The bed was covered in hair and the floor felt really dirty under foot. Would suit backpackers / students more so than families / couples

Would not recommend.

Our room was smaller than expected, bathroom sink and shower wasn’t draining properly. Customers have to pay for their luggage to be stored is greedy! Bright note, the staff was friendly and it was in good walking radius of everything.

Overall great stay!! Would return

Stayed in a 6-bed private room - fantastic price and amazing location! Beds and pillows were comfy. Great activites in the hostel. Downsides were the 1. noise of the nightclub that takes place on a Friday night, it went on until 3am I think 2. The bathroom sink is in the middle of the room and not in the toilet, just makes it loud when you wash your hands in the middle of the night Overall a great stay and I would recommend it and return here!

Basic hostel hotel but central location. Good: Welcoming staff. Central location to the city attractions with transport close by if needed. Very quiet location - slept very well. Clean room. Great shower with instant warm water. Plugs by bed Not so good: Bed creaky. Bed sheet did not fit bed well and kept rolling up leaving the mattress exposed (mattress is plastic so doesn't feel good to sleep on when sheet has moved!) Corridors could do with better signs to lift (walked past the door to the lift several times before I found it!)

The property was great for us as a family. We were busy all day and just needed somewhere to rest our heads and feet from all the walking we did. It would have been nice to have towels provided and being British, we’d have loved a kettle for making our own hot drinks. It was clean and warm, the shower was lovely and powerful, and the staff were accommodating. We were early for check in but they kindly offered us a different room which was ready. They warned that being directly above the bar it maybe noisy, especially as we were staying over the weekend, but it was not a problem for us at all.
